Unboxed it and 24 hours later we had severe storms and tornados in the area. Used the new detector as the system approached and passed...worked great. I do agree with other reviews that after a brief period you get saturated with warnings and it kind of loses its affect. Think it would be better if the warnings were based on distance change...maybe a different tone or color of led flash at 20 miles, 10 miles and 5 miles. Just a thought. Thanks!

I fly alot when i take my Drone out to fly the Lighning Detector goes with me i was were it yesterday and it went off saying the lightning was about 15 miles away then it did it again saying it was 9 miles away then i hurd thunder so ya it works great i also have a 5N1 Weather Station from ACURITE ALL OF THERE WEATHER PRODUCTS ARE A GREAT TOOL TO HAVE I LOVE THEM ALL and this little lighning Detector works great even if you are sitting at home turn it on you can use it indoors too and it works i always have this on 24 hours 7 days a week so get one it may save your life one day!!!!!!! thanks ACURITE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!!!

Thought this device would be good to have for my early evening kayaking out on the lake this summer.

I had the opportunity to test it out on a pending storm. I turn it on that night before I went to bed. Sometime after 2am the alarm sound on it. I detect the storm coming before I could even here it. About 6-10 minutes later the storm was close enough to here it by ear. It definitely work even indoors under indoor mode.
